Chapter 1643: Insta-killing a Mid-stage Demigod
As they watched Li Lingtian and Dongyue Baiyu reminisce, the pressure on the other powerhouses grew.
Some time ago, they had been chasing after Li Lingtian. Li Lingtian had said that they would pay the price when he returned. In the end, Li Lingtian had shaken them off.
Li Lingtian had been missing for more than a year. Everyone thought that Li Lingtian had been killed by the mysterious Heavenly Tribulation in Pure Yang Palace.
However, after more than a year, Li Lingtian walked out of the Pure Yang Palace unscathed. After he came out, he even said that he had returned. This sentence was undoubtedly a reminder to them that they had to pay a price for their pursuit of him.
" Li Lingtian, you’re lucky you didn’t die under the Heavenly Tribulation. "
"I didn’t expect you to still dare to come out. Hand over your treasures and I’ll give you a quick death."
Gong Sun Long’s expression changed. The Dazzling Sound Palace was Li Lingtian’s mortal enemy. Furthermore, they had pursued Li Lingtian this time. If they did not provoke the other powerhouses to fight Li Lingtian and take advantage of the situation to kill him, there would be trouble in the future.
When he spoke, he emphasized the word treasure and looked at the other experts.
Most of the powerhouses present had hunted Li Lingtian down before. After the Heavenly Tribulation, they were all born with supreme existences. At this moment, Li Lingtian would not be able to escape even if he grew wings.
"Heavenly Tribulation?"
Li Lingtian was taken aback. He was shocked. Could it be that these guys knew that he had broken through?
However, he did not reveal his cultivation realm.
With his cultivation base, as long as he didn’t deliberately reveal his cultivation base, even experts who were several levels higher than him wouldn’t be able to see through his cultivation base. He didn’t expect Gong Sun Long to see through his cultivation base with a single glance.
After coming out, he did not want to expose his cultivation realm so quickly. He wanted to use it as a trump card to catch his opponent off guard.
" Could it be that Lord Ling Tian didn’t see the Heavenly Tribulation? "
Dongyue Baiyu was surprised when she saw Li Lingtian’s expression. Could it be that Li Lingtian had encountered some fortuitous encounter that allowed him to escape the Heavenly Tribulation? How could he not know about the Heavenly Tribulation in Pure Yang Palace?
"Go to Pavilion Dongyue to clear your doubts."
Li Lingtian was even more confused when he heard Dongyue Baiyu’s words.
Looking at the appearance of Dongyue Baiyu, it was obvious that some changes had occurred in the Pure Yang Palace, and no one knew what this change was. It might even be related to his breakthrough.
Then, he said in a vague tone.
He looked at Dongyue Baiyu with a smile on his face.
His divine sense was monitoring the experts present. As long as these experts made the slightest movement, he would make a move.
However, he saw a situation that satisfied him. Because there were nearly two hundred super experts on the square, they gradually formed two groups, and the middle was separated like the Chu River and Han River.
On one side were the experts beside Dongyue Baiyu, and on the other side were Gongsun Long, Zhao Yanyun, and the others.
Naturally, the powerhouses on Dongyue Baiyu’s side did not pursue Li Lingtian. They did not want to make Li Lingtian their enemy. The powerhouses on Gongsun Long’s side were naturally the ones who were involved in Li Lingtian’s pursuit.
Li Lingtian was both satisfied and shocked at the sight.
Nearly two hundred super experts had chased after him. In other words, most people in the Divine Martial Continent wanted to deal with him. Whether it was treasures, Spiritual Stones, or wealth, they wanted to take them from him. However, they did not have the strength to do so.
" Haha, Lord Ling Tian’s luck isn’t bad! "
Dongyue Baiyu was confused as well. How could he not hear the indistinct tone in Li Lingtian’s voice?
However, she still did not know if Li Lingtian was truly unaware or if he was faking it.
Immediately, he told them about the destruction in the Pure Yang Palace.
"More than a year ago, a shocking change occurred in the Pure Yang Palace. The destructive heavenly tribulation caused countless experts to disappear."
"After that heavenly tribulation, only we are left among the experts who entered the Pure Yang Palace."
Dongyue Baiyu briefly explained the situation and power of the Heavenly Tribulation. Her eyes were fixed on Li Lingtian and she was even more confused when she saw the shocked expression on his face.
Li Lingtian was truly shocked.
He didn’t expect that such a terrifying change would happen in the Pure Yang Palace, and this change was caused by him. It was he who had attracted the destructive heavenly tribulation when he broke through.
He didn’t expect that this heavenly tribulation would have such a terrifying radiation power, even the entire Pure Yang Palace suffered a disaster.
Furthermore, they had no idea what was going on. Naturally, they did not know that Li Lingtian’s breakthrough had triggered the Heavenly Tribulation or that he was already a Demigod.
He was now shocked, shocked by the power of the heavenly tribulation, shocked by the catastrophe that the Pure Yang Palace had suffered.
However, he didn’t know that not only the Pure Yang Palace, but even the Pure Yang Empire of the Divine Martial Continent had also suffered a disaster of destruction. More than ten Heaven Cities had disappeared and were completely destroyed. Most of the experts had escaped, and a portion of the low-level martial artists had disappeared.
"It really is the heavenly tribulation."
Li Lingtian thought to himself. This Heavenly Tribulation was the real Heavenly Tribulation. It was not only targeted at one person, but it also affected the entire Pure Yang Palace.
All the Powerhouses looked at Li Lingtian in shock.
It was normal for them to be so shocked. After all, the Heavenly Tribulation was terrifying. They did not even know where Li Lingtian was hiding. Yet, he managed to avoid their pursuit and the Heavenly Tribulation.
"I see."
Li Lingtian sighed before he dealt with Dongyue Baiyu.
Then he looked at the purple gold pillar in the center of the square. If he wanted to leave the Pure Yang Palace, it was most likely related to this purple gold pillar.
Step by step, he walked towards the purple-gold pillar, completely ignoring the other experts.
Now that the other experts did not know about the breakthrough in their cultivation, he did not want to make a move.
Because if his cultivation was exposed, all the experts would know that the Heavenly Tribulation of the Pure Yang Palace was attracted by him. In this way, it would be impossible for him to keep a low profile in the Divine Martial Continent.
As for the experts chasing after him, he would deal with them after he went out. After his cultivation had broken through, he naturally would not be afraid of these experts.
After going out, he would find a place to concoct pills and let Huangfu Yuyan and the others break through. At that time, he could use the heavenly tribulation of Huangfu Yuyan and the others to cover up his breakthrough in the Pure Yang Palace.
Apart from Wang Xiaoman, the others around him had already reached the peak of Semi-Divinity realm. Even if they all broke through, one or two of them would be able to hide without anyone noticing.
However, he didn’t want to make a move now, but someone wanted to kill him.
As he walked toward the purple-gold pillar, Gongsun Long and Zhao Yanyun made their move. The two of them looked at each other, and their true essence instantly erupted, casting a destructive divine art.
"Divine Light!"
"The desolate silence is shocking!"
The two figures flashed and hovered in the air as they hurled their destructive Divine Powers at Li Lingtian.
A sudden attack from a peak Mid-Semi-Divinity realm expert was combined against a Semi-Divinity realm youth like Li Lingtian.
At once, the space was torn apart by the two destructive Divine Powers. In the blink of an eye, the two attacks arrived behind Li Lingtian.
Upon witnessing this scene, all the powerhouses thought that Li Lingtian would vanish into thin air. After all, the only outcome for a Semi-Divinity was to vanish into thin air when ambushed by two powerhouses at the peak of the Mid-stage Demigod Realm. Furthermore, Li Lingtian was caught off guard.
"The heavens have sinned, but you can still live."
"You brought this upon yourself. You can’t live."
Li Lingtian said calmly. He did not turn around but a mysterious halo burst forth from his body.
The mysterious halo was a powerful defense. As soon as the defense appeared, three destructive Sword Radiance appeared around Li Lingtian. They were the Sword Domain Sword Radiance.
The three sword energies of the Sword Domain shot toward Gongsun Long and Zhao Yanyun.
Two of them dealt with two divine powers, while the other one attacked Zhao Yanyun. This change instantly shocked everyone present.
He did not expect Li Lingtian’s reaction speed to be so heaven-defying. It was beyond the imagination of a Demigod powerhouse. Even a Demigod powerhouse would not be able to achieve such a reaction.
Moreover, the power of this Sword Domain sword light was terrifying to the extreme.
Naturally, even though he didn’t display his Demigod Realm cultivation, his every move carried the power to destroy the world.
The power of the Sword Domain’s sword light was many times stronger than before.
Right now, any divine art could be transformed into something magical in his hands, not to mention his trump card, which was a heaven-defying divine art. When used, its power could destroy the world.
Even though he didn’t know how powerful the Sword Domain was, he was sure that if he used it at full power, a middle-stage Demigod would definitely be destroyed.
As expected, Li Lingtian’s estimation was not wrong at all.
"Kacha!"
"Kacha!"
"Ah!"
There were two crisp cracking sounds and a miserable cry.
Two destructive Divine Powers ambushed Li Lingtian. However, Gong Sun Long’s Divine Power vanished after he was struck by two Sword Domain Sword Radiance. He was thrown out of the way. Zhao Yanyun was not so lucky.
At the same time that the divine art was broken, another sword domain sword light slashed down. His body was cut in half and finally turned into ashes.
The entire process happened in the blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye, two peak mid-stage Demigod Realm experts had ambushed a Semi-Divinity Realm young man, yet they were defeated and killed instead.
This was a reverse instant kill, a true reverse instant kill.
The three Sword Domain sword lights seemed to have crossed ancient time and space. They directly destroyed the two people’s divine arts and even cut Zhao Yanyun into two halves.
Instantly, the expressions of the experts on the square turned dull, and then they were shocked.
One had to know that these were two peak mid-Semi-Divinity realm experts. If two of them were to launch a sneak attack on a Semi-Divinity realm expert, it could be said that they would be killed instantly.
However, he was killed instead. Even now, he still couldn’t believe that such a thing was real. He thought that it was an illusion.
Both Gong Sun Long and Zhao Yanyun were at the peak of the Intermediate Demigod Stage. They were definitely in the top ten here but they were nothing in front of Li Lingtian.
Perhaps they were not even ants, because when ants attacked, they could still quietly bite them.
However, the two peak mid-stage Demigods were defeated and killed instantly without even being able to touch the corner of their opponent’s clothes.
